I put the following line in my .bashrc file: > alias sudo='PATH=$PATH:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin /usr/bin/sudo' This dynamically adds the desired directories to the path BEFORE executing sudo. The downside is that it won't work in scripts, but I usually set the path explicitly in my scripts anyway.
